Doing a new build. GPU is brand new.
Issue: Computer will not power on, other than some LEDs on the Mobo when power button is pressed. When the GPU is pluged in, and I try to power on, the PSU makes a quick noise like a relay or something and then nothing.
Basically, computer works without the GPU plugged in. When the GPU is plugged in, the computer will not turn on.
Wonder if there are any more diagnostics or if anyone has ideas before I send the card back for a new one. I do have a protection plan on it. I am pretty sure there is a short in the GPU that would make the power supply not turn on
Diagnostics Tried:
-Tried a new PSU. Started with an 850W Corsair PSU, thought that was the problem. Neither worked I bought the 1000W and still have the issue
-Re-seated GPU
-Removed GPU and booted using on board graphics, it powers up and goes to bios just fine. Both sticks of RAM are recognized, all fans are on and recognized, processor is recognized it.
-Made sure ram was in the correct spot based on Mobo manual
-Tried different Molex Cables to the GPU
-Plugged in both 8 pin connectors to different ports in the PSU
-Tried powering on one plug at a time, or both plugged. Either way still nothing
Here are my Specs:
i7-7700k
Asus Z270E Mobo
Corsair RM1000x (1000W)
16 gb GSkill tridentZ
Bitfenix Aurora Case
5 RGB Corsair Case Fans
Asus GTX 1080TI
1 tb Samsung 850 evo SSD (Not plugged in)
1 tb Old HDD from prior build (not plugged in)
Please let me know if there is any more info I can provide. This is my first post here, so not 100% sure what everyone needs.
